I believe that the track meet I went to last night pretty much sums up the entirety of the defective, petty human tendencies. It all started deceptively normal enough, got warmed up, relaxed until my 2-mile, which I somehow manged to get 5th in, even though my time SUCKED at 12:10, I could've kicked myself. Anyway, it was then that I began hearing ( Read more... )

Every time I go to Effingham, it feels like I'm going back home. Anyway, we got to shoot off guns. Very fun, and takes out any negative emotion you may feel. Blow stuff to bits so you don't do it to yourself or loved ones, a good plan, I think. Along with that, mom has come home, so I can breathe easier.Henry

Today was a rare day in that I had fun and enjoyed myself. Whoa, easy there Henry. It started off good when we went to the honor roll breakfast we didn't know was happening, so no parents... Anyway, me and Ben were being our normal insane selves, and we got a real kick out of the half amused, half frightened stare we were getting from Amanda's mom ( Read more... )

HER: Yeah, my grandma got Old Timers, a bad and really contagious disease. (Commences long story about grandmother's hospital stay, which was apparently violent, but fortunately short-lived, and not too interesting ( Read more... )

Why is it that once we get back from spring break the clouds break, the sun shines beautifaly, and the temperature soars to 70 when we ARE SLAVES TO THE SCHOOL SYSTEM?! Heads need to roll SOMEWHERE for this injustice ( Read more... )

Interesting Easter. When I first think of Easter I think of decorated eggs and baskets of candy, then nicely dressed people remembering Jesus's ressurection (Priorities out of wack? Maybe.) Well, I covered the latter in church, but then we went down to Effingham (the effective epicenter of the Dust family in America since the 1840's or 50's) to see ( Read more... )

Today I got to decorate eggs for Easter tomorrow. As I was decorating my first egg, Marble came up to me, and I was at first oblivious to his evil designs. As my natural reaction, I bent down to pet the treacherus scum of a dog. As I reach for him, I hear the egg I had absent-mindedly put down begin to roll, but it was too late. My beautifal egg ( Read more... )

Man, I don't know about any of you other guys, but I had a pretty good time today. JOIN THE DARKSIDE OF THE TABLE! Yeah, sorry if that bothered anyone, I got a BIT too carried away, a little energetic. The only complaint I have for all this is that it has left me VERY tired, but only because I had track practice in the rain this morning. Speaking ( Read more... )

I saw my uncle Joe and aunt Lori and their kids today and yesterday. Joe hasn't seen me for some time now, and he said how strange it was to see me now, a "man." I told him I was just as surprised, and he went on to try and tell me that I was suddenly tall and strong and handsome. I certainly don't think of myself that way, and I think he was just ( Read more... )

Drew is a pretty crazy guy. When asked what he's majoring in, he will tell you world domination. Quote:
CLAIRE: No you're not!
DREW: Yes I am.
ME: Yeah, they have world domination degrees. But if you're going to be evil, you don't need to follow the rules and actually get a degree.

If memory serves, we have already divided up the globe.Henry
